I recently described the importance of understanding and fluid use of triads which led me back to this incredible course unit at the MGA. I am not as fluid as I would like on this concept and revisited the Comping with Triads. Great Stuff!

I think it's "must-know-stuff", if you want to be versatile player. To me, triads are the most important building blocks, for these reasons:
- Learn the fretboard better
- Being able to use chords all over the neck
- Being able to find chord tones when soloing, all over the neck
Glad you like it!

What's fascinating is the perspective gained from playing less notes and not just playing a chord "shape" but playing patterns that connect and demonstrate how much a small interval change create a new voice. Simpler allows for more. And then the implied sound be determined by the bass line or your ear hearing it as a certain chord because of the movement leading and/or following the triad.
